The streakers, flashers, and proud displayers of crack of the world will probably take offense at The Undercover, but for the rest of us, a portable changing room that carries our change of, or changed-out-of, clothes as a backpack when we're not changing could be a very welcome addition to athletic pursuits and summer fun.
The Undercover pulls into a drawstring sack made of quick-drying, sweat-wicking, anti-microbial fabric for toting around the clothes and gear you don't need right now. When it's time to change out of swimwear, sweaty hiking clothes, or cycling lycra the backpack unravels into a roomy tube whose drawstring secures around the waist or, for women, around the neck, to provide coverage as you wriggle out of what you don't want to wear and into what you do. Without concern that the towel is gonna drop, or some kid and his mom are gonna to pick your tree for their whizz station at the exact wrong time. A zippered side opening provides additional access to the lower half of The Undercover to help finagle underwear and bottoms into / out of place.
The Undercover portable changing room comes in black, blue, and gray colors. Maker The Undress says one size fits most.

Defender Anti-Theft Backpack
Due to my hulking presence and penetrating stare, people usually know better than to try and steal...or touch...or come within 10 feet of my stuff. But I'll grant that theft, and pickpocketing in particular, is a worldwide...
AbleNook: Rapidly Deployable Modular Dwelling
I'm nearly sold on AbleNook, a collapsible housing unit that requires neither appreciable time nor skill to assemble, based on its Kickstarter project's opening quote alone. From Albert Einstein: "We can't solve problems...

Sleek Socket Outlet Concealers
I do like to conceal me some things. And while outlets aren't really at the top of that list, I do appreciate the tidiness and improved aesthetic Sleek Socket Outlet Concealers can bring to all the snakes and snake's...
Batman Backpack
I guess since the Dark Knight Rises motorcycle suit pretty much congeals itself to the body of whomever puts it on with nary a pocket to spare, UD Replicas figured they better come out with some sort of supplemental storage...

Human Burrito Blanket
A couple of giant Human Burrito Blankets will make sure your Tortilla Baby knows who Mommy and Daddy are. At 5' in diameter, I'd be able to roll up one fine bean, cheese, rice, and man meat burrito in this flour tortilla...

Tiny Home Frame Kits
"Frame" is the word to note in these Tiny Home Frame Kits made by PLUS 1. Buy one from Home Depot, and you won't receive a complete tiny home in a box, which is what I would want. And if they could somehow make it a pop-up...
Cocoon Go Go Gadget Pack
Geez, here's a backpack that has as many fancy names associated with it as it does fancy pockets for holding gadgets. Organization brand Cocoon (that's #1) has released its SLIM (#2) tech backpack with MacBook Pro (#3)...

Earth Traveler Ultralight Teardrop Trailers
I nominate bench pressing an Earth Traveler teardrop trailer for an event in the next CrossFit Games. Or maybe a World's Toughest Mudder obstacle of harnessing a 250-pound Earth T250LX to a runner's back and having him...
